Abstract: A balloon catheter including an inflatable balloon affixed to a catheter. The proximal end of the balloon is affixed to the distal end of the catheter so as to provide an air tight seal there between. A stiffening member extends distally of the distal end of the catheter and forms a slip joint connection with the distal end of the balloon to permit the distal end of the balloon to axially move or translate relative to the distal end of the catheter. The slip joint allows the axial length of balloon to change during inflation or deflation without transferring tensile or compressive forces between the balloon and the catheter. A balloon folding control mechanism is disposed about the portion of the stiffening member traversing the interior of the balloon, and is configured to promote refolding of the balloon into a predetermined and desired folding configuration upon deflation.

Abstract: The method involves determining curves representing derivatives of functions defining advancements of imbibition fronts in blocks, where one of the curves is constituted of two straight segments of different slopes (A''1, A''2) and functions of dimensions of the blocks. Dimensions of the blocks are obtained by adjusting one of the curves on another curve. The exploitation of a fluid deposit is optimized by simulating fluid flows in the deposit through a dual medium reservoir simulator using dimensions of families of the blocks.

Abstract: The ability to accurately and efficiently calculate and report communication errors is becoming more important than ever in today's communications environment. More specifically calculating and reporting CRC anomalies in a consistent manner across a plurality of communications connections in a network is crucial to accurate error reporting. Through a normalization technique applied to a CRC computation period (e.g., the PERp value), accurate error identification and reporting for each individual connection can be achieved. In particular, severly errored seconds are detected and reported.
